So a bolt-on HC nowhere near the 10s, and an unknown-prep HC slower than that. If I focused on this, I could say that the HC is disappointingly slow. That is the problem with not getting the whole story. When the conditions at the strip are the same as what produced the 10sec bolt-on HC times, we will better learn how the ZL1 in stock and bolt-on form compares to them on the dragstrip.

This is what I've been saying! Then you get the response that the Hellcat has modes and the people haven't figured their car out yet! Well the same can be said for the ZL1, even more so since there are less of them made and they have only been out since March or April. I just know I haven't seen a Challanger or Charger Hell cat stock on stock tires or DR's run faster times on the same night and same track as my ZL1. I guess none of them know how to drive the car or what mode to run in!
